Does anyone have a Braun Silk-epil 5?

I bought this (5208) last month. I have finally got it out of the box and it doesn't have a mains plug. It said it depends on the model whether it has one but it appears this model should. Can anyone confirm they got one with the product please?

I got one... looks like a white phone charger.

Thank you. I am taking it back.

Have you used yours yet? I am unsure whether to get another one or my money back.

Its a love hate relationship.

I spent so much on it I want to love it but it makes me bleed around the bikini line and misses a load of hairs on the legs.

It definately does not get hairs 'as small as a grain of sand' No way.

I have to grow them out pretty long to get a good result.

Ooops. Misread the post.

Mine has one.

I love mine. Doing legs and armpits is dead easy. Bikini area is a non-starter though as it makes me bleed and leaves little dots of red for weeks.

Well I took it back and it turns out it doesn't come with a plug. They gave me a new one anywhere as I felt my one had been had by someone else and I have to use an adaptor plug with it. Apparently it is so you don't use it in a bathroom.
